Right heres the place to post stuff that boggles your mind :cool:

And maybe even people can help and explain what you dont understand :)

Ill go first like a good Op, always.
1.) I watched Macbeth (yes, a movie version ( read the play too, dont hate)) and i have never understood how armour works? I know i might be a bit of a dumb question, but how can swinging a sword penetrade and kill someone with armour on? If you really wanna defend yourself, just wear 1 inch think full metal body armour, cause i dont understand how you can kill someone with armour on.

Anyone your turn guys :D
 
Armour has to permit some mobility and has to be light enough (thin) to wear and move around in, if you put enough force behind a piercing point (like a crossbow bolt for example) it will go through armour.

Also it doesn't help much when it comes to large blunt force, whilst protecting against small blows, the armour will cave if there's enough force behind the blow.
 
People with no sense of adventure. Be it in what they do, where they holiday, what they eat or drink. Stuff like that. Bizarre that people can just be content with mediocrity.

You'll grasp the concept when you get older probably, you might not dismiss what you see now as mediocrity. Contentment is a different thing to excitement and both are good.
